Review:
This is a wonderful instrument for someone looking for a guitar
that is a little smaller than a dreadnought. It is based on the
pre-war 000 design, including a triangular-shaped neck (cross
section). Unfortunately, using a capo puts a lot of pressure on
the "point" of the triangle, and this led to bubbling and
indentation of the finish. In my opinion, the finish should have
withstood the pressure from the capo without becoming damaged. I
have not approached Martin regarding repair of this problem,
but their warranty specifically excludes defects in the finish.

Minuses:
The finish (on the neck) was too soft when received. Warranty excludes defects in finish.

Suggestions:
Expand the warranty to include defects in the finish.

Suggestions:
Improve the finish and give it more time to harden before shipping the guitar.
